Getting Stronger By Fighting-Chapter 562 - 560: Deep Fire Blade_1

Wang Zhan clutched his chest, enduring the excruciating pain, and found that his Heavenly Dragon Armor was gradually dimming considerably.

He looked up, his gaze instantly falling upon the magma.

Where he had been standing, a giant saber hung in mid-air.

Surrounding the saber were iron chains, tightly fastening it. Perhaps due to the heat, the iron chains were constantly trembling.

Wang Zhan stared at the saber. However, it was enveloped by flames, and in his current state, he could not enter the magma.

He had barely escaped with his life just now; there was no way he was risking it again.

But with the item right before his eyes, was he to simply let the saber slip away?

With this thought, Wang Zhan braced himself. With courage he didn't know he possessed, he rapidly charged towards the saber.

His large hand swung down, and in mid-air, the shadow of a void saber Xu Xu emerged.

"Fatal One Slash!"

In the cave, a flash of radiant light swept across, and the massive blade shadow landed directly on the iron chains.

However, the iron chains didn't break apart with the slash.

But Wang Zhan didn't lose hope, because he saw trailing cracks on the blade shadow, proof that his attack had an effect on the iron chains.

The next second, Wang Zhan used all his strength, and a massive saber slashed through the air, fiercely descending onto the iron chains.

Once again wielding Fatal One Slash, sure enough, the chain began to vibrate.

"SNAP!"

Following that, the sound of the iron chain breaking echoed.

Wang Zhan, with his quick reflexes, immediately took action, directly snatching the saber suspended below the broken iron chains.

But, Wang Zhan couldn't help but curse!

Because this thing was too damn hot!

Of course, this was all within expectations. The saber's material was heat-conductive, and it had been buried underground for so long.

Wang Zhan didn't ponder too much; enduring the scorching heat and suppressing his excitement, he directly grabbed the saber.

The next second, the magma under his feet suddenly started to churn, similar to the waves that precede a tsunami.

Wang Zhan instantly rushed towards the cave entrance, pushing his speed to its limit!

The moment he burst out, a wave of heat surged from behind!

Soon after, the humming sound of dragons echoed; the Heavenly Dragon Armor had activated its ability.

But Wang Zhan didn't slow his pace because of it. Instead, he pushed his speed to the absolute limit, as his Heavenly Dragon Armor was nearing its breaking point.

The light surrounding him grew increasingly dim. He could not risk any issues with the Heavenly Dragon Armor.

After all, it had saved his life countless times.

Fortunately, aided by the Heavenly Thunder Step, Wang Zhan quickly reached the cave entrance.

Old Mao had been waiting nearby. Seeing Wang Zhan emerge, he immediately grabbed him, serving as support.

Wang Zhan shouted at him urgently, "Hurry, go! Don't look back!"

Behind them was still a raging heatwave; the magma surged forward as if it had eyes!

Old Mao's pupils contracted. He saw the magma behind Wang Zhan and, without stopping, swiftly pulled Xiang Tian along as they fled into the distance.

Wang Zhan and his companions pushed their speed to the limit. The magma's advance was also extremely fast, swiftly spreading from the surroundings of Hundred Beast Mountain. In its wake, the surrounding trees were turned to ash, and the ground became scorched earth.

However, the magma surged like a volcanic eruption, showing no signs of stopping.

The three of them ran side by side down the mountain. Watching the layers of heatwaves behind them, Xiang Tian gritted his teeth and muttered, "We can't let this magma reach the fifth war zone!"

The terrifying heat of the magma, once entering the war zone, would lead to unthinkable consequences!

Wang Zhan rolled his eyes at him and retorted sternly, "You'd better worry about yourself first!"

Xiang Tian wanted to reply, but Old Mao had already quickened their pace, and Wang Zhan swiftly caught up.

Half an hour later, the three of them had descended the mountain. The magma behind them was still spreading, though its speed had slowed considerably.

Wang Zhan stood at the foot of the mountain, squinting at the magma. On the Star War Battlefield, indeed, things that defy common sense exist. I haven't seen magma in many years. Who would have thought I'd encounter it here, and it almost cost me my life.

Old Mao's gaze fell upon Wang Zhan's back. He stared at the massive saber slung over Wang Zhan's shoulder and asked, "Is this the treasure you got from the Earth Core?"

Wang Zhan nodded heavily.

Only then did he begin to examine the saber closely. Although the blade was still somewhat warm, it was cool enough to touch.

The moment Wang Zhan's hand brushed the blade, a sharp pain shot through his finger. The next second, a drop of blood seeped into the blade. Suddenly, a streak of light appeared and rapidly entered Wang Zhan's body.

"Recognition of an owner?"

Old Mao stared in shock at the saber in Wang Zhan's hands.

In Wang Zhan's mind, the System's voice echoed, providing a detailed introduction to the saber.

Deep Fire Blade.

Superior Grade, Demoted!

Upgradeable!

Wang Zhan was astounded, staring at the saber in front of him, which was almost as tall as himself. Another upgradeable treasure?

The benefits of the Heavenly Dragon Armor were already clear to him, and now, the Deep Fire Blade had appeared.

Moreover, one is ice and the other fire; truly intriguing!

But as they conversed, the magma had spread and was about to reach them. Wang Zhan said firmly, "Let's go. It seems we can't stay here any longer."

The magma's destructive power was immense. Even Old Mao wouldn't last long here; he'd be incinerated, not even bones remaining...

Let alone Wang Zhan and Xiang Tian.

Although Xiang Tian still wanted to stop the magma, he had no way to do so. In the end, he could only follow Wang Zhan and Old Mao, leaving quickly.

Soon, the three of them returned to the rear of the fifth war zone. However, as soon as they arrived, Xiang Tian was dumbstruck.

He fell to his knees, his face paling to an extreme degree.

This...

"How is this possible?" he exclaimed.

Looking around, where was everyone? There wasn't a single person in sight.

Most importantly, everything around seemed to have been destroyed!

Upon closer inspection, many bloodstains were visible!

Xiang Tian knelt on the ground, clutching his hair, and roared, "What happened?! Where has everyone gone?!"

Wang Zhan also frowned, looking at the scene before him, his expression grim.

It's indeed strange here, as if a major battle took place.

Old Mao walked to Wang Zhan's side and said in a deep voice, "I think the creatures from Hundred Beast Mountain must have come down."

The creatures on Hundred Beast Mountain were extremely terrifying. Although they were all King-level beasts, there were simply too many of them.

If they charged down the mountain, the people of the fifth war zone wouldn't be able to resist them at all.

Wang Zhan frowned slightly. Only then did he remember. It seems so...

After they came out of the Earth Core cave, they hadn't seen any beasts.

Wang Zhan had thought they were all hiding, but now it appeared these beasts had charged down the mountain to attack the people in the camp.

Damn it!

Xiang Tian, his eyes red, ran around the camp for a while but still didn't see anyone.

First, despair washed over him. Then, he quickly walked over to Wang Zhan, raised his hand, and charged at him!

The atmosphere grew tense; a fierce battle was on the verge of breaking out!

Wang Zhan grabbed Xiang Tian's hand and took two steps back, but he didn't attack. He looked at Xiang Tian coldly and said sternly, "Do you know what you're doing?"

"Of course, I do."

Xiang Tian exclaimed, "If it weren't for you, how could something have happened in the camp?"

"Wang Zhan, I will never let you go! I will make you pay in blood for this debt of blood!"

The next second, Xiang Tian raised his other hand again, and a formidable power surged around his body!

But just as his fist was about to land on Wang Zhan, a huge sphere suddenly charged over from a distance!

Someone cried out, "What is that?"

Old Mao squinted slightly, then rushed towards the two of them. The next second, he pulled them apart!

"BANG!"

Then, a huge deep pit appeared in the ground!

And the huge sphere landed on the ground.

This is... Old Mao thought, his face turning deathly pale. He clenched his fists, continuously backing away with Wang Zhan and Xiang Tian.

Wang Zhan's gaze also grew serious. Staring at the stone-like sphere, he immediately asked, "Old Mao, do you recognize this thing?"

Old Mao immediately looked at Wang Zhan and said, "No, I don't."

I've indeed never seen this strange thing. Could this also be a beast?

Old Mao walked step by step towards it. Wang Zhan warned in a deep voice, "Be careful."

Old Mao didn't pause to speak; he had already touched the sphere.

At that instant, a dazzling light erupted from the sphere. The next second, the sphere split open!

A huge, blood-red maw suddenly appeared!

This is... Old Mao realized with a start. "A level 1 demonic beast?"

He reacted instantly, but it was too late to retreat.

There was still a significant gap between a Martial King and a level 1 demonic beast!

In an instant, the sphere had struck him and sent him flying!

Instantly, Old Mao was a bloody mess, his clothes tattered, and his face deathly pale!

Wang Zhan grabbed his arm. The next second, his face filled with shock as he said in a deep voice, "What happened?"

He hadn't noticed just now—Old Mao's arm was gone...

Xiang Tian's anger also vanished from his face, and he quickly walked to Old Mao's side.

Old Mao gritted his teeth, his gaze fixed on the sphere.

Indeed, the gap between a level 1 demonic beast and a royal-level beast was like an insurmountable chasm!

This was also the first time Wang Zhan had seen a demonic beast. He hadn't expected it to be so powerful...

Wang Zhan reached for the Deep Fire Blade on his back, raised the saber, and brought it down fiercely towards the sphere!

They still didn't know what this thing was, but there was no retreat, nowhere to run!

If they couldn't deal with the big guy in front of them, they would all perish here!

Wang Zhan shouted fiercely, "Fatal One Slash!"
